on. 1t comes upon US una

pains about the chest and sides,
and sometimes in the back.
They feel dull and sleepy; the
mouth has bad taste, especi-
ally in the morning. A sort
of sticky slime collects about
the teeth. The appetite is poor.
There is a feeling like a heavy
load on the stomach; sometimes
a faint, all-gone sensation at
the pit Of the stomach which
food does not satisfy. = The
eyes are sunken, the hands
and feet become cold and feel
clammy. After a while a
cough sets in, at first dry, but
after a few months it is at
tended with a greenish colored
expectoration. The patient
feels tired all the while, and
sleep does not seem to afford
any rest. After a time he be-
comes nervous, irritable and
gloomy, and has evil forebod-
ings. There is a giddiness, a
sort of whirling sensation in
the head when rising up sud-
denly. The bowels become
costive; the skin is dry and
hot at times; the blood becomes
thick and sta@nant: the whites
of the eyes become tinged with
yellow; the kidney secretions
becomes scanty and high col
ored, depositing a sediment
after standing. There is fire.
queutly a splitting up of the
food, sometimes with a sour
taste and sometimes with a
swedish taste; this is fire.

is thought that nearly one-half
of our population has this dis
ease in some of its varied forms.

ana w Iueucus
1t is confidently expected by those
interested that Los Angeles street will
be opened and widened at last, after a
period of fifteen years, during which
time efforts have been made to secure
that end. Some time since the assess
ments for the opening and widening
were made, and the majority Of the
owners consented to the proposition
then made. There were a few, how
ever, who withheld their consent, and
efforts have been made to secure their
cooperation in the move. Yesterday
at noon was the time set for the pay
ment of the last assessment, which
should by this time have been lein
on the property if not paid. had it not
been that there was prospect that
the property owners had agreed to pay
if given until four O'Clock to-day. This
extension OF time was granted, and in
all probability four O'Clock to-day will
see every assessment paid. If this is
the case, there will be no delay, and
the widening and opening process will
commence as soon as possible.
